A @FedEx update. I live in Bristol it’s been in a lorry in Bristol ready for delivery. I called them today and said it will be delivered to me tomorrow morning 2 days late while in their warehouse whole time. They now moved it out of Bristol 🤷🏼‍♂️. @FedExHelp #stopusingfedex

Well done @UKBorder. While I appreciate you have to check items is it really necessary to damage a bag which the contents are in when all you had to do is undo a bit of rope at the top of the bag. I would blame @FedExEurope but you put your own tape on it gave it away.

If you ever wanted to see the @bristolballoon in Minecraft. Spotted mine and Nicki’s balloons lots of others to find. Great effort.
